Senator Sherman's Daughter.

Philadelphia News: There is a
paragraph going the rounds that sena-
tor John Sherman's one child is a
daughter named Mary, who last year
for the first time entered society in
Washington. Mr.. and Mrs. Sherman
have no children of their own and
never had. The circumstances Of the
adoption many years ago of this young
girl were somewhat remarkable.
The Senator and his wife one day
were visiting an orphan asylum, when
this little child, then almost an infant,
seemed to take a great fancy to the
Senator and would hardly consent to
have him go away. This touched a man
who is naturally stern and cold in his
manner.
The result was sudden resolve tc
adopt her, and the Senator and his wife
took the child home with them, where
she has ever since been treated as Their
own daughter.

Marrying for Money.

Woman's Home journal: Girls,
don't marry a man for money, position,
or anything but love. Don't do it, if
you want to live to good old age
and be happy. You may think that
money can bring you all you desire,
but it can't. That is where you are
mistaken. It can buy a good many
things, but it can never purchase con-
tentment for your heart or happiness
for your soul. It may bring tempor-
airy smiles to your face, but it will
leave great shadows in your heart.
Don't think I would advise you to
marry worthless fellow, just because
you imagine you love him. A refined,
good, intelligent woman should never
marry a vulgar, ill-bred man. No, no,
never unite yourself to any one who
is not man in the truest meaning
of the word. Neither could I advise
woman to marry man who had no
visible means of supporting her, but
for heavens sake don't marry a million
aire or King if you don't love him.
It will not do. People have tried it
time and again, only to find it miser-

A New Kind of Wars11ip

A vessel has just been launched at
the imperial dockyard at Wilhelmi-
shaven which marks a new departure
in German naval architecture. It is
the cruiser Swallow, whose dimensions
are: Length, 81 metres; breadth, 9.36
metres; and depth, $50 metres, the
tonnage being 1900 tons. The Swallow
is a composite ship, with two engines
Of 1000 horsepower, driving two
screws, which give a speed Of 49,
knots. The vessel is armed with eight
long 1O3 centimetre Krupp guns, four
firing in the direction Of the keel,
and the rest being revolving cannon.
The crew numbers 120. The vessel is
not, of course, intended to take it's place
side by side with armored vessels in
the contingency ofa naval wal, but will
be employed on foreign service, especial
]y in cruising about the coasts of African
colonies. Hardly ten months inter
vened between the laying of the keel
and the launch OF the ship. Berlin

What time the winds on their heeI-wings

And all the tempest is friends with me.
None can reach me to wound or cheer:

Neither may trouble me: I can hear
But the Winds loud laugh, and the sibi-
liant strong,
Lulled rush Of the rain through the sapless
weeds.

With oaths forgotten and broken creeds!
Ye shall not lack for the SUMS fierce shining
With the gold Of my hair will make ye
For your blown, red forests give no repining
Here are my lips: will We still be sads
Comfort ye, comfort ye, days OF cloud,
Days OF shadow, of wrath, of blast
who love ye am come at last.
Laugh to welcome me! cry aloud!
For wild am as thy winds and rains
Free to come and go as they;
Loves moon sways not the tides of my

There is no voice that can bid me stay.

Out to the great, glad heart Of the year!

Whisky and Beer

Government statistics find that since
1910 the use of whisky has fallen off
one-half in the United States, while the
use of wines has increased about 40 per
cent. The consumption of beer has in
creased from 1856 gallons per capita in
1910 to 11.01 gallensper capita in 1886.
This may be considered a favorable
showing. as there is choice even Of evils.
Were those addicted to the drinking
habit to abstain entirely from the use
of whisky and confine their libations
to the Wine cup or the beer mug drunk
enness would be less frequent than it
now is. It is asserted that the police
records of large cities show that the
number of arrest for drunkenness has
decreased quite steadily since 1840.-

There will be an s.aching void the

mothers are to blame for the unhappi-
ness of their daughters. They teach
them that respect for their husband

preferred to that foolishness called love.
That would do very well if life had no
waves of trouble, but it takes some
thing more than simple respect to
make two hearts cling together in the
hour of adversely. A woman that
turns her back on wealth and takes the
man of her choice may miss some Of
the luxuries of life, but she will be
happy. Don't marry dude. Better

Man and Heaven.

He who really wants to go to Heaven
will conform his life, as nearly as he
can, to the standard which he UNDER
stands, or supposes, to be the standard
of Heaven. He, however, who pro-
poses to live according to his own tastes
as long as he has the power of per-
sonal choice, with hope of finding
himself in Heaven when he can no
longer control and direct his own
action, is evidently DESTROYS of having
Heaven conformed to his standard,
rather than conforming himself t
Heavens standard. And, after all,
there are a great many moro persons
who want to have Heaven so enlarged,
!or SO straitened, as to take them in.
than there are those who want to
jstraiten, or to enlarge themselves, SO
that they shall belong in Heaven as it
now is. But the limits of Heaven are
a fixed factor; and he who is unwilling
Ito put himself within those limits must

That acted like magic, ard then she
